    Damn, been off for the last month and would've been so down to go explore. Maybe next time. I'm in ND for the next few weeks.

    Good morning everybody.
    I'm glad to see you guys talking about fluid film, I think I'm going to have a go at that in the next week or two. You guys just cover the whole undercarriage except for the brakes and exhaust? Any other places I should be avoiding?
    I'm not sure who I see in Deerfield, but someone's driving a black Second GEN with an off-road bumper, anybody here?
    Are these roads out in Dalton possible with my stock first generation?
    Cheers
    James

    pretty much, yes. Its pretty safe stuff. The road their talking about is in october mountain state forest. So lenox, lee, becket area. And if you have 4x4, your good. The road i mentioned, gulf road, just connects two local towns here. Its only 7 mins long or so. It just has some rough patches which are fun.

    im interested in where you heard this. The weather channel has been saying since late summer, and has now confirmed that we are going to be in a strong el nino until early spring. El nino means on average, warmer winter temps for the northeast.

    Hey James. Yeah, all of the road that I have been on are doable with stock trucks. Have used 4x4 on a couple, but other than that all stock.

    i just test drove haddads blue access cab v6 yesterday. It really seems like a great truck. I think the engine had plenty of power, dont know why people are complaining. I showed my father the truck, and he likes it. He will be in the market for a brand new truck once he has the funds. It would be fun for us to both have tacomas, especially a gen 2 and 3.

    I noticed when you floor it, and then let go, the rpms stay way up high for a good 5-6 secs.

    Hmm. They never go with me. Ask for steve davis, he had me go alone. And they've never asked how long i'll be out, just take it as long as you want lol. They probably like it when your gone for a while, because they think your more interested. I think Im going to recommend steve to my father when hes ready. On my other test drives, the salesman just slapped a plate on the truck and sent me on my way. Steve actually did a walk around the truck, and explained its features. I already knew everything, but at least he wasn't as lazy as the other guys.
